Leveling wealth in the world certainly would be a solution. Greed unfortunately won’t let it happen.

Some how the greed coupled with accumulation of money seems to remove the ability for the wealthy, or even some of the moderately well off, the ability to connect the dots. I know a few and they simply do have their heads buried in a bucket. They are going about their everyday lives doing botox and lip fillers or playing golf. They keep up with their “friends” at the private school during football games at the expensive stadium paid for by donors. They seem to be oblivious to climate change and are planning on how they will play with their grandkids and take them to the beach on vacation.

Zero dot connecting skills, except how to exploit the system to gain more wealth.

Because of their wealth they will survive a little longer than the rest of us. But they better learn how to eat money. They will need that skill to teach their grandkids to eat it because there won’t be much food left by then no matter what the price.
